1 '0 all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HENRY E. VINGER, a citizen of the United States, residin at Barron, in the county of Barron and tate of 'isconsin, have invented a new and use- ,ful Heater for a Rangeand Coil: and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

This invention relates to an improved oil burner heater for arange including a coil, and an object of the invention is to provide an improved heater for a range, and including a coil having connections with the boiler, for maintaining the, water in the boiler heated to the desired temperature. However, it is to be noted that instead of oil gas may be used.-

Another object of the invention is to pro vide an improved deflector for the'coil, for deflecting the heat from the burner against each and every coil, so that, the water will be thoroughly and quickly heated.

In practical fields the details of construction may necessitate alterations, falling within the scope of what is claimed.

The invention comprises further features and combination of parts, as hereinafter set forth, shown in the drawings and claimed.

In the drawings :Figure 1 is a view in side elevation, showing parts broken away and parts in section, showing the improved heater as applied to a range, which also includes a boiler having a coil in one of the heaters. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view through the heater having the coil, illuscrating the deflecting means. Fig. 3 is, a. sectional View at right angles to that shown in Fig. 2. Fig. 1 is a detail view of the heater casing showing the two sections opened.

Referring more especially to the drawings, 1 designates a range 'having an oil tank or container 2 secured to one side thereof by means of the strap 3. Leadingfrom the tank or container 2 is a pipe or tube 4, which extends into the range. Carried by the portion 5 of said pipe are right angled extending tubes 5 having burners 7. which are provided with wicks 8. These wicks are movable with the members or sleeves i). there only being one shown. Each member orsleeve is engaged by a gear of each of the shafts 11 having a thumb or finger piece 12. By rotatingeach ofthe shafts 11 in one direction or the other the sleeve or member 9 is raised or lowered, for adjusting the wick. of two parts 11 and 15. as shown in Fig. 4 is clamped to each of the burner casings 7. The two parts of each of the casings 13 are hinged together as at 16, and are provided with extensions 17 and 18 semi-circular in A casing 13 consisting 60 i cross section, so that when the two parts 1 1 and 15 are brought together and secured at 19, the extensions 17 and 18 fit about the burner casing 7, thereby supporting the easing 13'; The section or part 14 of each of the casings 13 is provided with ,a sight opening- 20 having a hinged closure 21, which is provided with a transparent sheet or piece of ising glass 22, so that an operator can ascertain the condition or the state of the flame of the wick. The lower ortions 23 of each of the parts let-and 15 of provided with apertures or openings 24, to

each casing 13 are i permit air to enter the casing, so that the flame will have a proper combustion.

It will be observed that a heater including a casing 13 is disposed beneath the usual openings in the top plate of the range. Each of the openings 25 of the top plate of the range is provided with the usual radial bars 26, to support cooking vessels or the like in their proper positions.

Arranged in one of the casings 13 is a coil 27 having pipe or tube connections 28 and 29 with a boiler 30, so that the flame from the wick of one of the burners heats the water in the boiler, thereby heating the water in the coil, for various uses. Upon the inner circumference of the casing 13 having the coil, plates 31 are secured at'32 and 33. These plates 81 have oonvolut-ion's or c rrugations 34 adapted to deflect the heat. from the flame inwardly toward the coils, so as to heat each and every coil. The upper portions of the plate 31 are curved over as shown at 35 terminating adjacent the opening 36 in the top of the casing-13.

Secured at 37 to the arms 38 (which are secured at 39 to the lower portion of the parts or sections 14 and 15 of the casing 13) is the casing-l0. which has a curved upper end 41 provided with an opening 42 in registration with the opening 36, whereits lower end is tapered as shown at 44, so as to deflect the flame toward the coils. The outer surface of he casing has corrugations or convolutions 15, which alternlte with the corru ations" (3 l'o'f the plates" 31, so as to deflect t e flame and heat toward the inner portion of'theqcoil; By the provision of the corrugations 34 and 35 a zigzagcr irregular',passage is provided fdi'the coils,

so as .to, confine the heat thereto, which heat after heating, the coils passes out through the opening 36 and against the :top plate of the range, The lower tapered end ofthe casing has'an openin 46, so that any heat upon the interior of t e wick will pass through the casing 40. Any one of the other heaters may also be provided "with arcoil.

The invention having'been set forth, what is claimed as new and useful is:

1. In combi'nation with a range, an oil burner comprising a casing having an adjustable wick therein, a casin clamped to the burner casing; in which t e heat from the wick is confined, said casing comprising two hinged parts having extensions at their lower portions semi-circular in cross section to clamp against the burner casing,

2. In combination with a range, a multiplicity of heaters therein, ,each heater comprising. an oiLburner casing havin'g'a wick, a heater casing consisting of two semi-cylindrical sections hinged together, said sections having semi-cylindrical contracted. exten-.

sions at their lower parts to clamp against the burner casing to hold the heater casing in place, the bottom wall of the heater cas-' ing having a series of air vents, the top of the heater casing having anppening concentrically'with the burner casing, a coilan the heater casing, said heater casing having an ing their upper portions curved'toward and terminating adjacent the opening in the top of the heater casin a second casing upon the interior of sal coils having its upper portion curved concentric substantiaHy with the curved partsof said plates and having an opening concentric with the openingin the heater casing, the lower end of the second casing being tapered to deflect the heat from the wick toward the coil and having an opening, said plate and the second casing having convolutions in staggered relation forming an irregular passage to confine the heat to the coils.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specificationin the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
